Magical Items for Parenting
A final installment of joke items that my friends and I came up with many years ago to describe parenting in TFT terms. It is best to check my Spells for Fatherhood post to get all of the spell references. Some of these could easily work their way into a campaign. I might use the "Music Box of Lullabies" as a clever trap in one of my adventures. Enjoy.
Parenting Magic Items Lesser Magical Items (for the “Early Years”) Carpet of Eternal Cleanliness – Cost: 500 g.p. Variations: Bib of Repulsion (wearable) Crib of Containment – A variation of Pentagram: holds babies and demons within a 1-megahex area. Rattle of Amusement – An object enchanted with the Amuse Baby Spell. Greater Magic Item crib toy: Busybody Entertainer. Pacifier of Silence – Works as per the Deafness spell. No ST cost. Music Box of Lullabies – Any characters within 3 Megahexes must roll 3 vs. IQ or fall asleep for a time equal to 30 minus their ST in minutes. Bottomless Bottle of Milk – A mini cornucopia, specializing in milk. Toy Chest of Holding – Can store an infinite number of toys, and only toys. Car Seat of Safety – acts as armor that will take 8 points of damage/impact. 1 ST to activate in sensible sedans or S.U.V.s, 5 ST to activate in any sports cars or roadsters. Greater Magical Items Avert Bully – This amulet takes the form of a lunch box, sharpened pencil, or rabbit’s foot. It is a +1 good luck charm when used in the Principal’s office.

Re: Magical Items for Parenting
Sounds like the proprietary grimoire of the Nanny's Guild!

Re: Magical Items for Parenting
Brrrrrrr.... the idea of a Nanny's Guild just sent a shiver down my spine. That might make a solid core to an adventure. Tangling with that guild might be worse than dealing with the thieves guild. Cross them, and you might spend the next few years up in your room... without any supper!

Yeah, I think there's an episode of The Avengers about that...
